Is there some way to retain the file NUMBERING across SD card replacements? so that numbering always goes UP for the life of that camera (until a reset is done)..  Right now it seems the file numbering is stored n the SD card... so each swap of SD card gets a different file numbering for the photos..  It would be cool if there was a way to retain true unique numbering, despite swapping of SD card.. this way would avoid duplicate photo names...

Any thoughts?

Technically possible, not implemented yet.

Still need to find a way to disable Canon's resetting the image number when inserting a new card.
